Rates

NOTE - my rates are never prorated, and I always round up.

Rates for Solo Projects

I charge by video minute. This means <1 minute = 1 minute, 1-2 minutes = 2 minutes, 2-3 minutes = 3 minutes etc. 

It's my decision how much to shoot at any particular location to get the best result within that budget.

200 per video minute + 100 per shoot location.

Simple Wedding 

600 base + 200 per video minute

300 per video minute + 100 per shoot location + 100 per variant (if any).

(Variant can be simple re-edits, or reframing to fit different formats)
